I may bounce my head off the wall shortly, I can't believe that something as stupid as this has utterly defeated me ... therefore I turn to you, Stack Overflow ... for guidance and enlightenment.

Problem: Sit div at foot of page, 100% width, outside of any sort of wrapper.
Proposed Solution: http://ryanfait.com/sticky-footer/

Implementation with content: http://www.weleasewodewick.com/redesign/index_content.html Implementation with no content: http://www.weleasewodewick.com/redesign/index.html

with content -> Good, works nicely
no content = bad, footer sits exactly height of footer below the viewport.

I really would appreciate your input into this, it's completely vexed me for the past hour. I wholly expect some form of ridicule :)

Thanks!
